dynamic allocation
Dynamic allocation and pointers may be the only way to go to meet my current
needs.
Perhaps what Tone Koda mean when he wrote that sequences aren't flexible
enough, is that they aren't dynamic enough for a lot of applications. As I
just pointed out (prev. msg.), there is no decent way to access and modify
deeply nested data and structures. (Is there?)
Maybe all that's needed is an attitude adjustment. At first I thought, "Oh
great, here is a language that lets you avoid pointers," but if that's not
entirely true, so what? I worked with dynamic allocation and pointers pretty
effectively for quite a few years, and am willing to do so again, if that's
what it takes to get the job done.
